2022 Baylor Scott & White Concussion Education Course [IEM-X]

Concussion treatment has largely been absent from guidelines and research. There are an estimated 1.8 to 3.6 million sport-related concussions per year, yet many youth and high school athletes get poor or no treatment. Media focus on the long term effects of concussion has created a culture of fear. Despite significant advancements in our understanding of the injury and treatment protocols, there is little mainstream conversation about current, evidence-based best practices.
